Two pretty nice examples. Neither is import marked. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. The album of them is here:

Original matching Soviet guns. Simply outstanding. Rarely seen.

The relief cut for the rear band on the '40 M38 is similarly shaped to my '39 in a short collar stock. I've seen enough of these lately to begin thinking that the cut is OEM, and not added at a later date of refurbishment. Obviously, yours is NOT refurbished in any way.

Did I say "Outstanding" yet? Because they really are. Thanks for posting these beauties.
No words of wisdom come to mind at this time....

Very nice! And I assume these are not Finn Captures/Finn marked?

Guys, make sure you check out the album link in the OP, there's a lot of detailed even better pics there.

Do you see any? :wink: They're indeed non-Finn'ed too! This is largely what really sets them apart IMO.
